It’s a free software firmware replacement for ereaders based on Alpine Linux.

I’ve not tried it myself but wonder how it compares to the stock firmware on Kobo, particularly in terms of battery life and general performance.

Oh wow! The refreshrate on that is surprisingly fast! Is this via VNC or is the processor on that device just that speedy?

    That’s really cool! I have to see what type of Kobo reader I have because this feels like a weekend project.
